Pre-Engineering Academy completer graduates from West Point

Cadet Colin S. Jones, a 2004 Stow-Munroe Falls graduate and Manufacturing and Pre-Engineering Academy completer, graduated in May from the U. S. Military Academy at West Point. While at West Point, Jones studied environmental engineering and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army within the Infantry branch. He is currently stationed in Germany on his first assignment.

Last spring, Jones visited the Manufacturing and Pre-Engineering Academy program at Roosevelt to speak to Academy students about engineering and the importance of Pre-
Engineering high school programs. He spoke highly of his experience in the Academy.

“Colin was a serious and dedicated student, always prepared for class and tests,” says Academy instructor Tony Barbuto. “Of all the students I’ve had in physics over the years, he ranks up there with the best. He was a no-nonsense, get-it-done sort of guy.”
